Bonjour,
As Québec’s new Agent-General in London,
allow me first to wish you all a very happy and
successful new year. I am delighted to be taking
up this position at the head of the London team
and very much look forward to meeting many of
you during my time in office.
Québec’s relationship with the UK, Ireland and the
Nordic countries is a crucially important one in
political, economic and, of course, cultural terms.
Québec is extremely proud of its artists and cultural enterprises, whose
incredible work on the world stage showcases the best of Québec to
an international audience while at the same time opening doors to
investment, intercultural development and political exchange.
Culture is a central part of the Québec identity and a vital force in our
economy. We are proud and delighted to be able to share it with you
again this year.
Bonne lecture!
Christos Sirros
Agent-General, Québec Government Office in London
Venez célébrer la semaine de la francophonie!
20 March: Match International d’Improvisation @ Institut Français in London
Following last year’s resounding success, performers will fly in from around the
Francophonie to face off in a comedic tussle with a particularly Québécois twist.
2015 is especially important for us: Québec’s Michaëlle Jean, former Governor
General of Canada, has recently been appointed General Secretary of the
Francophonie. She is the first woman to hold the position.

Combining a great stage presence with an energetic, dynamic flair, Le Vent du Nord are one
of the leading names in Québécois folk music throughout the world, delighting crowds with
their mix of fiddle, guitar, accordion and hurdy-gurdy since 2002. On 17 January they return
to Celtic Connections, Glasgow’s annual folk, roots and world music festival, for a concert
which will be recorded by the BBC (for broadcast in February 2015). Then, on 16 March at
Kings Place in London, the quartet will launch their eighth CD.
Louis Lortie’s playing possesses the ‘combination of total spontaneity and meditated ripeness
that only great pianists have’ - The Times
A leading interpreter of the music of Beethoven, Lortie is also noted for his interpretations of
Ravel and Chopin. In this concert, as part of the Southbank Centre’s prestigious International
Piano Series, he will couple Alexander Scriabin’s vividly imagined preludes with pieces in the
same form by Gabriel Fauré.

‘Uniquely flavoursome’ - The Times
Combining circus arts with music, dance and theatre, artistic director Jeannot
Painchaud has joined together with celebrated Québec choreographer Dave
St-Pierre to create a tour de force in contemporary circus.
Blending circus with theatre, dance, live traditional music and Québec folklore, this brave and
creative family of performers has just been awarded the Best International Tour award by
Québec’s Arts Council, having brought Timber! to 52,000 spectators in 30 cities around the
world since its tour debut in 2013.
Cirkopolis transports performers and spectators between dream and reality in an
uninterrupted stream of acrobatics, music, images and drawings to delight the
eye. Performing within an inventive stage design and accompanied by an original
musical score and video projections, 12 acrobats and multidisciplinary artists rebel
against monotony, reinvent themselves and challenge the limits of the factory-city.

Kooza is a return to the origins of Cirque du Soleil that combines

The show highlights the physical demands of human performance in

emphasises bold slapstick humour.

Dana Michel is a critically-acclaimed choreographer and performer from Montreal whose work
can perhaps best be described by its influences: lucid cinematography, living sculpture, physical
comedy, psychological excavation, deconstructed social commentary, the bulimic logic of hip hop
and child-like naivety.
Her most recent solo, Yellow Towel, was featured in the ‘Top Five’ and ‘Top Ten’ 2013 dance
moments in Voir newspaper (Montreal) and Dance Current Magazine (Canada) respectively,
and was recently singled out as one of the most remarkable productions at the 2014 American
Realness Festival (New York City) by The New York Times.

not occupy an imaginary realm but is rather an examination of our
own world, inhabited by real people with real-life concerns.

Fresh from their Christmas run at the Southbank Centre in London, acclaimed Québec
company Cirque Alfonse are bringing their thrilling circus performance Timber! to Brighton.
With this wood-chucking spectacular, inspired by the exploits of the first North American

JAN – APR 2015
Montreal digital arts festivals ELEKTRA and MUTEK are teaming up to organise Digital Québec
@ BFI, a major event presented under the banner of the BFI’s Sonic Cinema project. Through
artistic performances, presentations and professional activities, the London public, as well as
selected UK and European programmers and art professionals, will get an exciting insight into
the excellence of Québec artists working in the field of digital art.
Nottdance, one of Europe’s leading festivals of dance and performance, is known for its
innovative and entertaining programme and for always posing the question ‘what can dance be?’
At this year’s festival, dancer and choreographer Katie Ward will present her latest work, Infinity
Doughnut. In this speculative and naive survey of our surroundings, bodies are squeezed and
compressed; they also laugh, vibrate and drift.
Québec artists will present audiovisual performances over two nights in the BFI’s flagship cinema
(NFT1), while the International Marketplace for Digital Arts (IMDA) will showcase the artistic
practice and related activities of Québec artists and organisations to an audience of selected
industry professionals. Free presentations and discussions on the topic of digital creativity in
Québec will also be open to the public.
Performed outside of the theatre, George Stamos will present Reel, a twirling meditation,
oscillating between ritual, performance and play. In a suspended state of spinning for periods
of up to 60 minutes at a time, the artist references his experiences of euphoria as a dancer in
nightclubs.
ELEKTRA is a Montreal-based cultural initiative, presenting artists and digital artworks concerned with
contemporary aesthetics in research and experimentation. Since 2012, the organisation has also produced
the International Digital Arts Biennial (BIAN), held all over Montreal.
